  • The Cia-Cia's Adoption of the Korean Alphabet and Identity Politics in Decentralised Indonesia
    KEMANUSIAAN Vol. 20, No. 1, (2013), 51–80 Being Korean in Buton? The Cia-Cia's Adoption of the Korean Alphabet and Identity Politics in Decentralised Indonesia SEUNG-WON SONG Hankuk University of Foreign Studies, Yongin, South Korea [email protected] Abstract. This study1 investigates the motives behind the adoption of Hangeul, the Korean alphabet, by the Cia-Cia ethnic group in Baubau, Sulawesi, Indonesia. The import of Hangeul exemplifies how Indonesian peripheries have tried to form their own regions as distinctive entities against the nation. Their attempts to do so expand beyond the nation in hopes of emerging as new centres in a decentralised Indonesia, in which new power dynamics can be negotiated. Furthermore, this case portrays how the local population copes with growing ethnic identities and the mission of modernisation simultaneously. Keywords and phrases: Hangeul in Buton, Cia-Cia ethnic group, Indonesia's identity politics Introduction In August 2009, Amirul Tamim, the Mayor (2003–2012) of Baubau City on Buton Island, located in the south-eastern part of Sulawesi, announced that the Cia-Cia ethnic group in the region had just adopted Hangeul, the Korean alphabet, as a transcription tool for its ethnic language. This ethnic group, with a population of approximately 60,000, lives primarily in the Buton district and the nearby islands; however, one-third of the ethnic group now resides in Baubau.2 This export of Hangeul was initiated by the Hunmin Jeongeum Society,3 a scholarly association consisting of several linguists in Korea. For the past decade, this association has attempted to export Hangeul to a number of remote areas in countries such as China, Nepal and Thailand.

  • Hierarchical Reciprocities and Tensions Between Migrants and Native Moluccas Post-Reformation
    Journal of Southeast Asian Human Rights, Vol. 3 No. 2 December 2019 pp. 344 – 359 doi: 10.19184/jseahr.v3i2.8396 © University of Jember & Indonesian Consortium for Human Rights Lecturers Hierarchical Reciprocities and Tensions between Migrants and Native Moluccas Post-Reformation Hatib Abdul Kadir Universitas Brawijaya, Indonesia Email: [email protected] Abstract The research subject of this paper focuses on the Butonese, who are considered ―outside‖ the local culture, despite having lived in the Moluccas islands of Indonesia for more than a hundred years. The Butonese compose the largest group of migrants to the Moluccas. This article research does not put ethnicity into a fixed, classified group of a population; rather, the research explores ethnicity as a living category in which individuals within ethnic groups also have opportunities for social mobility and who struggle for citizenship. The Butonese have a long history of being considered ―subaltern citizens‖ or have frequently been an excluded community in post-colonial societies. They lack rights to land ownership and bureaucratic access. This article argues that Indonesian democracy has bred opposition between indigenous and migrant groups because, after the Reformation Era, migrants, as a minority, began to participate in popular politics to express themselves and make up their rights as ―citizens‖. Under the condition of democratic political participation, the Butonese found a way to mobilize their collective identity in order to claim the benefits of various governmental programs. Thus, this paper is about the contentiousness of how the rural Butonese migrants gained advantageous social and political status in the aftermath of the sectarian conflict between 1999 to 2003.

  • The Avifauna of Kabaena Island, South-East Sulawesi, Indonesia D
    FORKTAIL 33 (2017): 40–45 The avifauna of Kabaena Island, south-east Sulawesi, Indonesia D. P. O’CONNELL, S. SEALY, F. Ó MARCAIGH, A. KARYA, A. BAHRUN, K. ANALUDDIN, D. J. KELLY & N. M. MARPLES Kabaena is a satellite island of mainland Sulawesi, located off the south-east peninsula. Despite the relatively extensive surveys on the nearby larger islands of Buton and Muna, Kabaena has remained ornithologically neglected. Researchers visited the island several times between 1999 and 2016 to collect data for avian biogeographic research. Data collection between 1999 and 2003 focused mainly on mist-netting small passerines. The 2016 expedition focused on transect surveys, allowing for a wider assessment of the island’s avifauna. During these visits all bird species encountered were recorded, providing the first scientific assessment of the avifauna of Kabaena. In total 89 species were recorded, of which 27 are regional endemics, three are classified as Near Threatened and one as Endangered. INTRODUCTION Te underlying geology of the island is an unusual combination of Pompangeo Schist and ultramafc rocks, whereas the larger islands of Since the pioneering work of Alfred Russel Wallace, Wallacea has Muna, Buton and the extreme southern tip of Sulawesi’s south-east been of great interest to naturalists (Wallace 1860, 1869). Te peninsula are mostly comprised of sedimentary rock (Hall & Wilson unique faunal composition of this biogeographical region makes it 2000). In contrast to Kabaena, Muna has a maximum altitude of one of the world’s top 25 biodiversity hotspots (Myers et al. 2000). only 250 m, whilst the highest part of Buton, the largest of the three Sulawesi, the largest island in Wallacea, is an important centre of islands, attains 1,100 m.

  • Molecular Evoloutionary Genetic Studies of Orthopteroid Insects
    MOLECULAR EVOLUTIONARY GENETIC STUDIES OF ORTHOPTEROID INSECTS: A BIBLIOGRAPHY. Since my last review of this topic (Chapco 1997), there has been a virtual explosion in the number of population genetics studies and phylogenetic analyses of grasshoppers, katydids and their kin in which molecular markers (e.g. RAPDs, AFLPs, microsatellites, partial mitochondrial and nuclear sequences and, more recently, complete genomic sequences) have been used as traits. To perform an up-to-date review at this time would be a somewhat daunting task. Instead, I am providing a list of references that have appeared since 1997 and which may prove useful to other researchers. The style I’ve chosen more or less follows that set out by the Journal of Orthoptera Research. Some references, strictly speaking, are not molecular in scope but ones in which comparisons with molecular phylogenetic findings are made (e.g. Cigliano and Amédégnato 2010). Others deal with molecular aspects of development (e.g. Dearden and Akam 2000), which, it is expected, will have phylogenetic implications in the future.

Peristiwa ini sangat mengagetkan, baik seluruh masyarakat Indonesia maupun negara-negara tetangga karena aksara Latin sedang memegang peranan kuat dalam penggunaan aksara di seluruh dunia pada zaman ini. Dari sisi yang lain, yakni aspek sejarah perkembangan aksara di dunia ini yang berjalan dalam proses peminjaman dan penyesuaian aksara secara berulang terus membuktikan bahwa suatu sistem tulisan (selain Latin) juga dapat digunakan dalam masyarakat bahasa yang lain pada abad ke-21. Seperti sejumlah besar masyarakat bahasa minoritas, masyarakat bahasa Cia-Cia pun belum pernah memiliki sistem tulisan tersendiri sehingga bahasanya tidak pernah sekali pun dituliskan dengan aksara apapun. Penulisan Hangeul dalam bahasa Cia-Cia dimulai dengan maksud untuk melestarikan bahasa minoritas. Sesuai dengan maksud tersebut, jika kelangsungan hidup bahasa Cia-Cia akan dilanjutkan dengan stabil, Hangeul akan diingat sebagai salah satu sistem tulisan yang telah melestarikan bahasa Cia-Cia dalam sejarah perkembangan aksara di dunia ini. Kata Kunci: Bahasa Cia-Cia, bahasa minoritas, Hangeul, peminjaman aksara ABSTRACT This paper aimed to describe the background of Cia-Cia language society’s adoption and use of Hangeul (Korean alphabet) as its writing system that was begun in July 2009. The issue has caused Indonesian society and neighborhood countries curious, since Latin alphabet is world widely used as the most common writing system at present time.
